They have not added the feature in Iphone 3G for using it as a modem. This is one hell BIG diffirence compared to other brands but other than that I like it.

        Apple iPhone To Record Video

        One of the bigger issues with the Apple iPhone is that it was devoid of video recording capabilities.That is now about to stand corrected. Although it is NOT Apple who has revamped the camera but a third part application that will provide this facility.

        check this link to download the software on your iphone - http://monsterandfriends.com/iphonevideo

            So much hassle over just one phone.
            Just let the people who want it get it; it's their money spend

              Some Advise People:

              I'm considering buying the Iphone 3G and would like to see if you think it would be worth me buying.

              This is the story so far:

              I currently use the Nokia N95 8gb mobile phone, which I really like, i've only had it for 4 months and it has alot of features I don't really use.

              I also recently bought a Apple ipod touch 32gb, which I've only had for 3 weeks so far and I spent AUD$629 on and I am in love with it and I like the huge memory it has.

              Now, sometimes I don't like carrying around two gadgets (Ipod touch & Nokia N95), not that it's much of a hassel, so I do like the idea of having one great device like the iphone 3G which gives me the touch features that I like, the fact that I can have all my music and video's and stuff in it.

              Now, I only use my mobile phone (Nokia N95) for voice calls, txt/sms messages, multimedia messages, games, videos, bluetooth sharing, wifi and some normal standard features. I don't care for video calling because I never really use it.

              My only concern about the iphone 3g are:

              - I read it does not send or receive multimessages at all!! (Is there away around this)

              - Also you can't bluetooth between other bluetooth gadgets.

              - Also that the most memory the iphone 3g offers is 16gb's ( i have 32gb's in my touch).

              Regards to memory, I'm wondering whether 16gb's would be enough anyhows, reason being is that I have about 1000 songs, 60 x half hour tv episodes and 100 pictures on my current ipod touch 32gb and i've only used up to 8gb's of its shared 32gb memory, and I dought very much I am going to put a whole lot more on it except for more music. So I am thinking 16gb's would be enough memory (would love a 32gb iphone, i wouldn't hesitate to buy one then hehe), but thats not hapenong anytime soon, i guess.

              So basically what I'm asking you guys, is what would you do based on this information I have shared with you. Would love your thoughts/suggestions to help me to decide if i should buy the iphone 3g or just keep using my Nokia N95 and my ipod touch as i am now, or combine the two into one with the iphone 3g.

              Thanks in advance for your suggestions/advise ;-)

                    THis phone has a lack of features but i think i should get it because it has got standard and look. Am pretty sure if u will use it infrnt of pepole many of them will turn back 2 see this phone.

                          RAM, 20 Jun 2008IPHONE IS THE BIGGEST RIP OFF IN CELLPHONE HISTORY. 1)first of all.. There is no uniqueness... more"IPHONE IS THE BIGGEST RIP OFF IN CELLPHONE HISTORY."
                          - Yours is the most outrageous statement in history. That you would think people would not understand your ignorance is amazing.

                          "1)first of all.. There is no uniqueness to the phone. every other person i know has the same exact phone."
                          - You know so many people?

                          "2)If u are a real PHONE USER. You would realize that the IPHONE is a closed cascade.You cant do anything with it WITHOUT breaking the warranty on the phone. ahem. JAILBREAK."
                          - You statement is factually untrue. It can be restored to it's original software via iTunes. There is no trace it was ever unlocked.

                          "3)$200 for the phone + $80 something per month on the plan. thats like $1000 u spending each year on a CELLPHONE!!"
                          - So, you are suggesting someone pay 800 - 1,000 for a Sony, Samsung, or Nokia (which networks and carriers don't support with the same services)? And then, you think the plan will be less money? Please!

                          "No interconnectivity between applications. NO BLUETOOTH except for HEADSETS. so if i want to get a ringtone or pictures from my friend.. I WILL HAVE EMAIL IT TO EACHOTHER EVERYTIME."
                          - You have a point. But, it's not enough to degrade the overall experience of this awesome phone.

                          "NO MMS? wat are u in 1990s?YOU are paying $30 a month for the dataplan. and u CANT send MMS. rediculous."
                          - Again, you are in error. My phone can send an mms. I downloaded the program. A couple minutes later...mms is working. In any case, there are mms workarounds. An mms works via the phones e-mail address anyway.

                            Mashhood, 20 Jun 2008Very very well said my friend... but i really dont get it why the iPhone has soo much hype..?And people, like me, who own the iPhone don't get it why you don't get it. It's awesome, in case you haven't realized it yet. If not, then why are so many manufacturers trying to imitate it? Why so many comparisons? Why so many people buying it? Why so many countries taking it. Would you suggest all these people are just fools? But yeh some people, like your self, just don't get it. We have hope for you though.

                                      Almost no people use video calling, so why waste the time and money making it?
